You know you hit me<>From the blind side, babyI wasn't looking at allI tried to danceAnd do the rope-a-dope, babyBut I was destined to fallWell that's the best fall I ever tookI can do without plenty of things, babyLike lots of moneyAnd the problems that it brings

CHORUS:But your love is not an optional thingIt's not a February fling, noIt's not good for man to be aloneAnd your love is not an optional thingYou got a figureLike an hourglass, babyYou just look better with timeYou got a mindLike a steel trap, babyYou're quick to find the bottom lineHere's the best line I ever saidI do, I will, so help me God

CHORUSI'm so gladI'm so gladOut love overcameI'm your manI'll protect you in the pouring rainA typhoon, tornado, in a hurricaneNo your love is not an optional thingIt's not a February fling, noIt's not good for man to be aloneAnd your love
